I had persistent and -terrible sores all over my upper body and arms. My condition would not respond to the treatments I tried.
Dr. Abadjieff diagnosed the sores as being from the bacteria staphylococcus aureus and explained my weakened immune system could fight the infection. She explained how her vaccine therapy could boost my immune system bring relief to my condition.

My child suffered constantly with chronic bronchitis. She suffered greatly from her problem.
Dr. Abadjieff diagnosed the bronchitis as being caused by staphylococcus aureus bacteria and explained how her immune system could resist the disease.
The vaccine therapy given by Dr. Abadjieff cured the problem and she had no trouble since then.

I was suffering from eczema that covered my entire body with horrible skin disorder. I also discovered that I had an allergy to the substances in concrete and I work with concrete daily.
I went to Dr. Abadjieff and she confirmed my diagnosis but told me about the role of my immune system in the disease. She explained that my weakened immune system could be boosted by her vaccine therapy.
The results have been amazing and I am very pleased.

When a virus or bacteria (also known generically as a germ) invades your body and reproduces, it normally causes problems. Generally the germ’s presence produces some side effect that makes you sick. For example, the strep throat bacteria (Streptococcus) releases a toxin that causes inflammation in your throat. The polio virus releases toxins that destroy nerve cells (often leading to paralysis). Some bacteria are benign or beneficial (for example, we all have millions of bacteria in our intestines and they help digest food), but many are harmful once they get into the body or the bloodstream.
Viral and bacterial infections are by far the most common causes of illness for most people. They cause things like colds, influenza, measles, mumps, malaria, AIDS and so on.
The job of your immune system is to protect your body from these infections. The immune system protects you in three different ways:
Let’s start at the beginning. What does it mean when someone says “I feel sick today?” What is a disease? By understanding the different kinds of diseases it is possible to see what types of disease the immune system helps you handle.
When you “get sick”, your body is not able to work properly or at its full potential. There are many different ways for you to get sick — here are some of them:
Mechanical damage - If you break a bone or tear a ligament you will be “sick” (your body will not be able to perform at its full potential). The cause of the problem is easy to understand and visible.
Vitamin or mineral deficiency - If you do not get enough vitamin D your body is not able to metabolize calcium properly and you get a disease known as rickets. People with rickets have weak bones (they break easily) and deformities because the bones do not grow properly. If you do not get enough vitamin C you get scurvy, which causes swollen and bleeding gums, swollen joints and bruising. If you do not get enough iron you get anemia, and so on.
Organ degradation - In some cases an organ is damaged or weakened. For example, one form of “heart disease” is caused by obstructions in the blood vessels leading to the heart muscle, so that the heart does not get enough blood. One form of “liver disease”, known as Cirrhosis, is caused by damage to liver cells (drinking too much alcohol is one cause).
Genetic disease - A genetic disease is caused by a coding error in the DNA. The coding error causes too much or too little of certain proteins to be made, and that causes problems at the cellular level. For example, albinism is caused by a lack of an enzyme called tyrosinase. That missing enzyme means that the body cannot manufacture melanin, the natural pigment that causes hair color, eye color and tanning. Because of the lack of melanin, people with this genetic problem are extremely sensitive to the UV rays in sunlight.
Cancer - Occasionally a cell will change in a way that causes it to reproduce uncontrollably. For example, when cells in the skin called melanocytes are damaged by ultraviolet radiation in sunlight they change in a characteristic way into a cancerous form of cell. The visible cancer that appears as a tumor on the skin is called melanoma.
My child was constantly being hospitalized for pneumonia episodes and seemed to never get any better. The pneumonia would return after the hospital visits. Whatever the doctors did for her in the hospital did not work.
Dr. Abadjieff explained that her immune system was weakened and was probably at the bottom of her problems. She told me about how the vaccine could help rejuvenate her immunity and give her greater resistance.
After the vaccine therapy from Dr. Abadjieff she made a remarkable recovery and she no longer has to be taken the hospital. It is a great relief. She is now healthy thanks to Dr. Abadjieff’s vaccine therapy.

Your immune system works around the clock in thousands of different ways, yet it does its work largely unnoticed. One thing that causes us to urgently notice our immune system, is when for some reason it fails us. We also are acutely aware of it when it does something that has a side effect we can see or feel. Here are several examples:
When you get a cut, all sorts of bacteria and viruses enter your body through the break in the skin. When you get a splinter you also have the sliver of wood as a foreign object inside your body. Your immune system responds and eliminates the invaders while the skin heals itself and seals the puncture. In rare cases the immune system misses something and the cut gets infected. It gets inflamed and will often fill with pus. Inflammation and pus are both side-effects of the immune system doing its job.
When a mosquito bites you, you get a red, itchy bump. That too is a visible sign of your immune system at work.
Each day you inhale thousands of germs (bacteria and viruses) that are floating in the air. Your immune system deals with all of them without a problem. Occasionally a germ gets past the immune system and you catch a cold, get the flu or worse. A cold or flu is a visible sign that your immune system failed to stop the germ on contact. The fact that you get over the cold or flu is a visible sign that your immune system was able to eliminate the invader after learning about it. If your immune system did nothing, you would never get over a cold, let alone something more serious.
Each day you also eat hundreds of germs, and again most of these die in the saliva or the acid of the stomach. Occasionally, however, one gets through and causes food poisoning. There is normally a very visible effect of this breach of the immune system: vomiting and diarrhea are two of the most common symptoms.
There are also all kinds of human ailments that are caused by the immune system working in unexpected or incorrect ways that cause problems. For example, some people have allergies. Allergies are really just the immune system overreacting to certain stimuli that other people don’t react to at all. Some people have diabetes, which is caused by the immune system inappropriately attacking cells in the pancreas and destroying them. Some people have rheumatoid arthritis, which is caused by the immune system acting inappropriately in the joints. In many different diseases, the cause is actually an immune system error.
Finally, we sometimes see the immune system because it prevents us from doing things that would be otherwise beneficial. For example, organ transplants are much harder than they should be as a result of the immune system often rejecting the transplanted organ.
Inside your body “lives” an amazing protection mechanism called the immune system. It is designed to defend you against millions of bacteria, microbes, viruses, toxins and parasites that would love to invade your body. To understand the power of the immune system, you only have to look at what happens to anything once it dies. That may sound gross, but it does show you something very important about your immune system.
When something dies, its immune system (along with everything else) shuts down. In a matter of hours, the body is invaded by all sorts of bacteria, microbes, parasites… None of these critters are able to get in when your immune system is working, but the moment your immune system quits, the door is wide open. Once you die it only takes a few weeks for these organisms to completely dismantle your body and carry it away, until all that’s left is a skeleton. Obviously your immune system is doing something amazing to keep all of that dismantling from happening when you are alive.
The immune system is complex, intricate and interesting. And there are at least two good reasons for you to know more about it. First, it is just plain fascinating to understand where things like fevers, hives, inflammation, etc., come from when they happen inside your own body. You also hear a lot about the immune system in the news as new parts of it become better understood and new drugs come on the market — knowing about the immune system makes these news stories understandable. In this article, we will take a look at how your immune system works so that you can understand what it is doing for you each day, as well as what it is not.
Bird Flu and your immune system
To my readers….
The Abadjieff Immune Focused Therapy is dedicated to rejuvenation of the immune system. It is the first line of defense as new and resistant diseases appear around the world. A rejuvenated and strong immune system helps protect the body from those diseases that my clinic treats specifically as well as a host of other bacteria, viruses and micro-organisms. Today there is no better protection from such threats as f.e. “the bird flu” than your own rejuvenated immune system.
While the World Health Organization and the United Nations recently have appointed a “bird flu czar” to coordinate the study of the problem of bird flu, also called AVIAN FLU, the implications for vibrant immune system health comes into focus.
The killer avian influenza, also known as bird flu, broke out in eight Asian countries late in 2003, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, South Korea, Thailand and Vietnam all reported infected poultry. In late June 2004, lethal outbreaks of infection among poultry broke out again, including in China and Malaysia. In March 2005, North Korea reported its first outbreak of bird flu. More than 140 million birds have died from the disease or have been killed to prevent further spread. The disease as of lately spread to other countries. Today more human cases were found to exist in Indonesia.
At first, most experts in the scientific and medical community believed that the disease was unlikely to be communicated to humans. The bad news came in 1997 when the first cases appeared in Hong Kong. Human to human infection became a reality recently, when two people having bird flu were confirmed to have caught it from another human. With human infection a reality, the fear of an epidemic comes into focus.
Based on historical patterns, the World Health Organization expects influenza pandemics to occur on an average of three to four times each century when new virus sub-types emerge and are readily transmitted from person to person. In the 20th century, the great influenza pandemic of 1918-19, which caused an estimated 40 million to 50 million deaths worldwide, was followed by pandemics in 1957 and in 1968. The effort to control bird flu comes into focus when considering these numbers.
These concerns point to the necessity of keeping ourselves and our immune systems healthy.
